Day 5

Pizza is not your friend.

We all love pizza, but it does not love us back. It makes us fat.

Sure, if you are at the local Italian bistro and the pizza is a small item with a thin crust, a little olive oil, tomato slices and a dusting of cheese, go ahead and eat it. On an occasional basis. The problem is that your typical take-out pizza oozes olive oil and the cheese is so thick it flows onto the table. Which is to say it is loaded with fat and calories.

When pizza is on the menu just say no. Not even one slice. Not even a bite. Live a pizza free existence and stay lean.
